Description

The transition element occurs within a treatment to define the new forest stratification values (forest type, silvicultural condition, etc.) for the condition after the current treatment is applied. If no transition is provided within a treatment element then the stand will regenerate with unchanged stratification values conditions.

The transition represents the response of a stand to a management treatment option.

Examples

In the following example a BW1 forest unit may be treated with an 'Intn1' treatment type. Rhe resulting forest unit would be a 'PWUS' with a SILVINT of 'Regrowth'. Only these two fields will be changed as a result of this treatment type, all other stratification values remain unchanged.

  <select statement="FU eq 'BW1' and IFM in ifm and SILVINT eq 'Exten'">
    <track>
      <treatment label="Intn1" minage="70">
        <produce>
          <assign field="treatment" value="'Intn1'" />
        </produce>
        <transition>
          <assign field="FU" value="'PWUS'" />
          <assign field="SILVINT" value="'Regrowth'" />
        </transition>
      </treatment>
    </track>
  </select>
